Chapter 223 - Chapter 223: A Visit

"Huangqiao Church, Father Matty?" Saxon took note of these two points seriously, then said to his phone, "I got it, Mom."

He smiled easily, "I'll be back tomorrow. What gift do you want?"

Mrs. Camille was somewhat speechless, "Are you still thinking about this now?"

Saxon shrugged casually, "Mom, don't worry, it's just a night's affair. What could possibly happen to me? Otherwise, you'd never be at ease no matter where I go."

Then, Saxon laughed, "Mom, let me tell you something very coincidental."

Mrs. Camille frowned, "What is it?"

"Do you know why Amelia and I got together? It's fate." Saxon said, pulling out the cross around his neck, "She and I both have Father York's crosses, and her sister Jessie was once saved by the priest."

Hearing this suddenly, Mrs. Camille was stunned, a feeling of incredible coincidence surged in her heart.

Yet she couldn't help but shake her head. As a mother, how could she not understand her own child's thoughts? She knew Saxon was scoring points for his girlfriend.

"It seems she is protected by Father York's cross just like you. So, you remembered what I said, right?"

"I did, Mom." Saxon said helplessly, but seeing his girlfriend walking over with a tablet in hand, he quickly hid his expression.

"If something happens, I'll do as you said."

"That's good." Mrs. Camille pinched her forehead, doing her utmost.

Even though the best way might be to send a private jet to forcefully bring him back, her son was grown up and needed to be respected, plus she couldn't assume her son would definitely encounter trouble, or else, as he said, she'd never be at ease wherever he went.

"Remember! You must tell me if anything happens," Mrs. Camille reminded him earnestly.

"So I can inform the priest in time."

Saxon nodded to his girlfriend, who had now reached him, and continued, "Maybe you should give me the priest's phone number."

Mrs. Camille shook her head, "Father York won't answer calls from strangers. In his words, he doesn't want to and is too lazy to distinguish whether the person on the other end is real or fake."

Hearing this, Saxon couldn't help but recall the priest's indifferent demeanor, grumbling, "That's definitely the priest's style. Mom, if there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up."

Mrs. Camille reminded him again, "Remember my words, and you can also tell Amelia, after all, she also has Father York's cross."

"I understand." Saxon responded and then hung up the phone.

"Your mother?" Amelia asked.

Saxon nodded, looking at the filming crew packing up, "Yeah. Have you finished your work?"

"Almost." Amelia replied, then asked, "Why were you asking Trish for a video earlier?"

Saxon sighed, "For my mother, you know the situation."

Amelia smiled gently, "Of course, I know. I wouldn't be at ease either, especially with such matters."

"Tomorrow is the last time, so I won't need to oversee it personally after that. Plus, after we finish filming tomorrow, we'll have some time to explore."

Saxon hugged her, "You've worked hard."

Amelia shook her head, "You've worked harder. You didn't have to come with me, but you did... because of me..."

"It's okay." Saxon interrupted his girlfriend gently, "By the way, my mom just told me..."

Before long, Saxon told Amelia everything.

"So, this cross has that effect?"

Amelia also took out her cross, looking at the luminescence entwined within it, feeling moved.

"Yeah." Saxon said, "The priest said, this is one of the best ways to trigger the power inside the cross. Although I don't understand the reasoning, I think the priest wouldn't lie. Also, about visiting Father Matty at Huangqiao Church tomorrow?"

Amelia snapped out of her thoughts and nodded with a smile, "As you say."

"So, where do you plan to shoot tomorrow? The last one definitely needs to be good," Saxon laughed, "I saw the tablet in your hand."

Amelia pursed her lips, never hiding anything from her boyfriend, especially on such matters. She picked up the tablet and tapped a few times, "Here."

"Let me see." Saxon took the tablet and started reading.

Tomorrow's shooting location was a bit different than before; it was the applicant's home.

According to the applicant, Rini's statement.

Strange things were happening in her home.

It started when her mother developed a strange illness, losing her ability to move and speak, becoming paralyzed in bed. That's when the strange occurrences began.

Because her mother was paralyzed, they equipped her with a handbell to ring if she needed anything.

However, at some point, Rini heard the bell ringing late at night and went to her mother's room, which marked the beginning of even stranger events.

That night, Rini entered her mother's room, and her mother seemed just asleep, not showing any abnormalities.

Thinking it was an accident or something, she heard the bell again in the early hours, and upon entering her mother's room again,

She encountered something that made her start to feel uneasy.

Her mother, who was supposed to be asleep, suddenly sat up, staring with wide eyes and frantically ringing the handbell.

Her gaze was fixed on a corner.

As if in that dim corner, there was something only her mother could see, something Rini couldn't...

"A paralyzed mother? Suddenly able to sit up? Ringing the bell in the middle of the night? Not only the applicant but also several of her younger brothers have encountered strange events?"

As Saxon read, he couldn't help but feel puzzled and sympathetic.

"This is indeed weird."

Suddenly, a hand reached over and took the tablet, giving him a big scare.

"It's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Saxon breathed a sigh of relief, letting the hand take the tablet back.

"You shouldn't follow tomorrow, okay? This thing does seem quite ominous. The applicant's grandmother was also paralyzed, always moving in a wheelchair, but one day, her wheelchair was outside, and she managed to drown in the well in the yard, over ten meters away, with steps in between."

Amelia put away the tablet, looking at Saxon, who was sweating on his forehead, and spoke seriously.

"I can handle it myself. If there's something I can't deal with, I'll stop filming immediately and leave."

However, she saw her boyfriend shaking his head firmly, "I'm not at ease with you."

Amelia felt a warmth in her heart. She knew about her own ability to see spirits, which could lead the team to avoid dangers, but her boyfriend didn't know yet he still wanted to follow.

"Before filming tomorrow, we can visit Huangqiao Church first, to inquire about this matter, for everyone's safety."

"Okay." Saxon smiled.
